Did you catch Justin Bieber at Coachella? When he sang alongside footage of his 13-year-old self, it wasn't just nostalgia — it was a public, vulnerable act of inner child healing.
In this short episode, Dr. Tracy Dalgleish unpacks why that moment landed so hard and what it teaches us about our own healing work.
Tracy explores:
Why meeting your younger self is powerful healing work
How we quietly learn to abandon ourselves growing up
Why we meet our struggles with criticism instead of compassion
Why Tracy believes adulthood doesn't truly begin until 28 or 29
Why inner child work is never "done" — and why that's the point
A gentle invitation to approach your younger self the way Justin approached his on that stage — with a quiet "I see you. I'm here."
